God's Forever Family

Philippians 1:1-7; 2:1; 3:10; Acts 16
You know, the early church lived in the anticipation of the soon coming of our lord and savior, Jesus Christ. Not only the soon coming, but the imminent coming; that means ''the any moment coming'' of our lord and savior, Jesus Christ. Take God's word, open it up to the book of Philippians. Do you ow', do you get Philippians, and Galatians, and Ephesians, and Colossians all mixed up, and don't know which is which? General electric power company. O.k.?

And, uh, and the, the little, uh, new-ager was a demon possessed girl who was saved by the gospel of Christ. Uh, the jailer, uh, the prison guard was the jailer who was saved in a Philippian revival. Uh, and the, uh, the businesswoman was a woman named Lydia from thyatira, who had a business selling purple dye.
Incredible thing is that the grace of God took people from this divergent background and made them one in the lord Jesus Christ. That's what a church is, dear friend. A church is a family of pe ...
